OOOoooooooo! .. or something like that came out of my mouth when this opened. I'm packing my bags Ian. Love the light, love the DOF/POF, love the BG. My only tiny 1/2¢ nit is I would make the blade of grass coming into the LLC go away. This is lovely. >=))>

Thanks for the comment, Bill - this version looks better with that leaf taken out.

Quite good! I didn't do Bill's "Indian Love Call", but I did come out with a dignified MMM MMM! The repost does look better. The addition of the pin striping also helped.

Great detail, Ian, and you caught some excellent light! I'm equally happy with both versions - nature is not perfect !

Beautiful look at these crocuses, Ian, set off so nicely by the colors in the background.

Hi Ian,
My yard is still covered in snow, but a high in the 60's will melt a lot of snow today. The second version is awesome and that narrow white edge adds a nice contrasting boundary to the scene.......................Jim
